I think the only people who are off-limits are the ones who won't let themselves be seduced. Anyone who's ever really, really, truly been in love knows that you don't get suckered in by every Jim or Jane on the street who sends a sly glance your way.
Unless your mate was forcibly abducted (or was held against their will after agreeing to leave and thinking better of it), they didn't want to stay with you. How can you blame the lack of interest on their part on the person with whom they left?
